Johannes Berg 48044eb490 netlink: fix netlink_ack() extack race
It seems that it's possible to toggle NETLINK_F_EXT_ACK
through setsockopt() while another thread/CPU is building
a message inside netlink_ack(), which could then trigger
the WARN_ON()s I added since if it goes from being turned
off to being turned on between allocating and filling the
message, the skb could end up being too small.

Avoid this whole situation by storing the value of this
flag in a separate variable and using that throughout the
function instead.

Fixes: 2d4bc93368 ("netlink: extended ACK reporting")

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
